Hi there! My name is Laronne (la-Ron) and I have been involved in several aspects of the mental health field for fifteen years. I am a Texan and currently work in a suburb of Dallas. I have a partner of 17 years and a 33 year old son. I began my journey as a criminal justice addictions professional and worked with a variety of clients to include those with intellectual disabilities who had been charged with a variety of crimes as well as federal parolees who are having issues with substance abuse. I also facilitated a group for high school kids who had tested positive for (mostly) marijuana during random testing. I worked with people with autism and intellectual disabilities from 2004 through 2017 working closely with psychiatrists and performed as a team leader. While working on obtaining my license I worked in a psychiatric hospital in the intensive outpatient program during my internship. After obtaining my license I sought employment with a social service agency so that I could work with a wide variety of people with a wide range of concerns. I enjoy working with different cultures and subcultures and most often work with people with substance abuse, depression, anxiety, past trauma and those dealing through life changes such as grief, disability, and retirement, forced or otherwise. Although an existentialist at heart, my therapeutic approach is primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I feel this approach works very well for a myriad of issues and is relatively short term and is an action therapy which provides working tools and is client driven.

My name is Amberlyn Keller, M.A., M. Edu., LPC. My education background includes: I have a bachelor’s of science degree in psychology from York College in Nebraska, a master’s of arts degree in Applied Research Psychology from The University of Texas of the Permian Basin in Odessa, Texas, a second master’s of art degree in School Counseling from University of St. Thomas in Houston, Texas and I completed my License Professional Counselor (LPC) classes through Lamar University through online education. I have 13 years teaching/coaching experience at all levels of education including special education as well as teaching experience at the college level teaching psychology courses online for five years for Midland College from 2005-2010 as a part-time adjunct teacher. As a former coach, I know how important mindfulness and mental skills can play a role in the success of an athlete. I have been counseling since 2015 when I started to complete practicum and internship hours for certification in school counseling followed by hours needed for LPC, respectively. I am fully licensed in the state of Texas as a LPC and have experience working in private practice as well as in a behavioral psychiatric hospital. I like to focus on client centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and have a realist approach to counseling. I also believe working through grief and trauma is important in moving forward in life. Mindfulness and yoga practices along with the use of essential oils can help with this. I believe each meeting with a client is a conversation that serves a purpose where the client can talk things out, think things through and grow. I love to work with children, adolescents and adults, and enjoy incorporating physical activity, yoga, deep breathing and mindfulness meditation into counseling sessions as necessary and at the comfort level of the client/subscriber. I am also able to work with people who have experienced a traumatic brain injury as well as other medical conditions due to my own experience with surviving a stroke in 2020. I am also willing and able to counsel individuals dealing with the loss of a beloved pet or impending loss. Within each of these specific situations there can be grief, loss, depression, guilt, shame and lots of other emotions that need to be processed to work through those things and to be able to move forward and manage life as it changed. One other area of common practice for me to counsel on is job loss or career management. I look forward to working with others and hope to provide a service of counseling that can make a person feel better. hopeful, or at least gain some perspective each time there is a visit and for them to be able to apply the new perspective to their daily life situations.

I am a LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Texas with over 11 years of experience working as a therapist and life coach. Through my private practice and contract work I have worked with a diverse population of clients with a wide range of issues like emotional and physical trauma, anxiety, depression, substance abuse , and ADHD. I also help individuals in a life situation in which they are looking for deeper meaning and searching for their life's purpose as their current course feels empty and devoid of direction. Most often a significant event (death of a loved one, divorce, loss of a job, trauma, etc.) has motivated them to find their life's passion. I experienced this at age 48 and left a highly lucrative but mundane restaurant management position to pursue a career in which I could genuinely help and serve others through counseling therapy. My counseling approach has continued to evolve through the years as my clients (my greatest teachers) have educated me to listen mindfully and tailor my therapeutic plan to their individual needs. I draw from a variety of modalities including cognitive behavioral. client-centered, solution-focused, reality therapy, and energy therapies including the Emotional Freedom Technique. The course of therapy and treatment plan will be customized to your specific and unique needs. I am a strong proponent of meditation and mindfulness and encourage these if the client shows interest. The fact that you are seeking help shows courage and openness and a desire to change in a meaningful and lasting way that can positively revolutionize and enrich your life. I can assure you that you are worthy of such an endeavor. I have never looked back or regretted any changes that I have undertaken since joining the counseling profession and I would be honored to be your therapist and help you transcend your issues! I look forward to assist you on your healing journey! Thank you!
